Murphy has a lot of nicknames:
- Turd Ferguson (or just “Turd” for short)
- Gremlin
- Piranha
- Brickhead (Mal calls him this)
- Lazy Pants McGee
Today, he’s been Lazy Pants McGee all day long.
Murphy even slept while sitting in my lap. Well, sorta.
Snack
Mid-morning, my stomach started to grumble, so I made half of wrap with Barney Butter and a sprinkle of ground flaxseed meal spread inside. It kept my stomach quiet until lunchtime.
Lunch
For lunch, I enjoyed an arugula salad with Buffalo Tofu and Atheno’s tomato & basil feta crumbles on top. I’m not going to lie, it was quite amazing.
I also had a container of French vanilla yogurt.
And, of course, I enjoyed a few Cherry-Dark Chocolate Cookies after lunch. I couldn’t help myself! Plus, Cookie Friday is less than 24 hours away. I guess I’m just practicing for game day! š
Time to take the pug for his long walk of the day!
See ya! š
Awh those pug photos are TOO CUTE! I love seeing them š
I posted about my little doggie-doodle today, too!
Aren’t the fantastic!?!
It must be hard being Murphy! š He’s cute. I love the photos. I send them to my BF who wants us to get a pug. š
I think celebrating cookie friday a little early sounds like a great thing to do.
Those nicknames are too funny…lol.
I’m totally making those cookies tomorrow!!!
cookie friday TOTALLY requires practice! in fact, i think i’m going to go practice right now š
I call my dog everything but her name (Jane): Bee, Poodle (she’s a husky), Beetle.
Does Murphy have an electric heated bed?
Love nicknames for animals š
My dog Naava is Navy Bean, Naava Noodle, Naavanator
My cat Myko is Meeksters, Myko Bandeeko, Meeks
My cat Neci is Neci Pieces or Killer for biting my face to the point of having to go to the emergency room!
I want a doggie so bad! Murphy looks so cute cuddled up in your arms!
Looks like a delicious day so far! Enjoy your walk!
awhhh what a sleepy head!
Awww, it makes me want to curl up right now!! Wah..Wah…
Around here we call my dog “lil’ shit” š And he responds!
Murphy looks seriously too cute curled up in your lap, what a life he leads!
Love the nicknames! “Gremlin” is my favorite š
Have a great walk with Lazy Pants McGee! š
My pup Franklin is “Mr. F” Anyone else watch “Arrested Development?” We say it in the “Mr. F voice” too!
What a life, huh? My little pug is crazy about 90% of the time and then the other 10% is an angel and sleeps the day away.
He leads such a tortured life laying in momma’s arms all day. So cute.
I forgot about cookie friday! I am soo excited to treat myself to a nice delicious cookie!
sounds delicious!
WOW! I just came across your FANTASTIC blog. Your story rings true to mine…thanks for all the motivation! Now, I’ll be sure to check in each & every day! š
Haha I call my husband Turd McFurgerson… wonder if he & Murhpy share any qualities š
Yum, Buffalo tofu sounds sooo good!
Jenn
The wrap sounds yummy! What kind of wraps do you use? I just had a great experience with Ezekiel wraps, but its great to have options.
I call my basset Shorty McGee. It’s funny how many nicknames are easily made up when your pet can’t protest them!
Murphy looks like a sea lion sleeping on your lap like that!…and that salad does look really good. I think I’ll be whipping one up for lunch myself!
I feel like I would never get any work done with Murphy wandering around. He looks so cute sleeping on you.
Haha, brickhead. Love it!
Aw! Poor Murphy is zonked! That is my Rascal every day! He also likes to sleep on my lap like he’s a 5 lb. Yorky instead of a 19 lb. Daschund. His nicknames are:
1. Little Man
2. Stink Monkey
3. Grump Bucket
Cookie friday might be my excuse to make cookies tomorrow. š
Aww, Murphy is the cutest! Hope you both enjoyed your walk together! =D
I’m pretty positive I would read a Murphy only blog. Haha
Also stonyfield yogurt just rocks my face off. I’m obsessed with the lemon flavor.
That salad looks delicious! I liked all your different names for Murphy! Particularly Mal’s “brickhead”, haha.
it’s so weird how my dog can be a lazy bones at times – he’s a jack russell so usually whenever everyone else sees him he’s freaking out.
Aww, isn’t Murphy just the cutest! Your salad does look pretty delicious with the arugula, tofu and cheese – can’t go wrong!
D’awwwe that picture of him on your lap is so cute. š
Our dog is named Shea, and we come up with clever nick names for her all the time.
When she breaks up fights between the cats, she’s “Shea-rif”
When she wakes me up in the morning its a “Shea-ke up”
When we’re singing a Steve Perry song to her its “Oh Shea-dog, you’re all alone…”
We also refer to her as Bluppy (she’s a black puppy) or Blog (black dog, she’s older now)
Murphy aka Lazy Pants McGee is adorable!
@Samantha Angela @ Bikini Birthday: LOL! Say what?
I love that feta cheese w/ 1 can black beans, 1 can shoepeg corn, 1/4c sugar, 1/4c EVOO, 1/4c cider vinegar, diced scallions all mixed together and served w/ Scoops. The best dip in the whole wide world. It’s even better the next day.
I must try your cookie recipe and the buffalo tofu! Yum!
@Nerissa: LOL! Mal and I always say he looks like a harp seal!
I love how snuggly Murphy is… I wish Koda would be more snuggly… but she only gets that way when she’s worn out š
PS- buffalo tofu looks good… and I don’t even ever make tofu!
haha oh to have a dog’s life hey!!!!
Aww, what a dog’s life š Murphy is just too adorable. š
Wei-Wei
What do flaxseeds taste like? I saw them preground at the shops today – is that how you buy them? Any help much appreciated š
Murphy is living the good life!! š
I heart Murphy! My bestfriend had a dog like that and how he snores! š
